“Leg 10 had maintained a precious heaviness in my chest that I did not want to lose, and I was afraid that stepping off the ship would mean stepping back into my regular life, that everything I had seen, heard, learned, and felt would fade into memory as other trips do, and that nothing would change…”

Visual artist and university lecturer Soheila Esfahani grew up in Iran, moving to Canada in 1992, during the 125th anniversary of Confederation.

She explains how C3 impacted her art practice.

Today marks the 52nd anniversary of the passing of Chanie Wenjack, a 12 year old Ojibwe Anishinaabe boy who died trying to run away from residential school in Ontario.

This is why a number of Indigenous participants, such as Lillian Howard hesitated to join Canada C3. Here she is in her own words.

She may still only be in her 20s but it is hard to find anything that youth ambassador Makrina Morozowski hasn’t done!

Makrina promotes the efforts of the 3E Love initiative - a social entrepreneurial experiment to change the perception of disability.
